CONTRACT- BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
Solution to Previous Contract Problem.
This is another of Johm Beam- ish's interesting hands from the Bridge Magazine of England. taken from an article by blat en-
Finesse." titled "Delaying the In to-tay's hand he gives us an example of that interesting squeczo --the Viena cop-which avoids) the finesse,
South has a borderline hand con- taining two and one-half high card ricks, but as he bas only a five- card suit, he cannot bid originally. North property bids one diamond | and when South makes a one-over- one bid of one spade, we find North being forred to assist the spades with only three to the queen,
To bid one eu trump would be signing the band off, and it s worth while giving his partner a chance
There is no rval advantage in having Nortli become the declarer this at no trump; therefore, in case, he must support his partner with only three trump.
South shows that he has a five- card suit by bidding three spades and North takes the contract to four.
The Play
West enshes his three top hearts and then leads the deuce of clubs. The seven is played from dummy and East plays the ten. The fact that West led n club and East finessed the ten, practically marks

East with the queen of clubs. De- clarer wins the trick with the king. Of course, South has no diamond finesse to take, for there is only one play he can make properly, He should lead the ace of spades and theu play a small spade, win- ning in dummy with the queen,
His tape In the hand is to find Eust not only with the queen of clubs, but also with the queen of diamonds, so the ace and king of diamonds are cashed immediately. and then a spade returned, South winning with the king. Declarer then lays down his two good spades, discarding two diamonds from dummy-
That was the reason the ace and the king of diamonds were played firat so that those two diamonds could be discarded. On the first spade, East can let go a club, but on the second spade he is helpless. If he discurds the queen of din- monds, the declarer's jack is good,

while his only play is to let go the eight of clubs. In the meantime, West has let go a heart and the ten of diamonds. hoping to con- vince the declarer that he holds two clubs to the queen,
But his original play was too ol vious, so the declarer refuses to take the finesse, goes up with the ace of clubs in duminy, dropping Kust's queen, and the jack of clubs wins the last trick.
Today's Contract Problem
What should South's orig Inato? Now that you have compted all the quick Tricks that he holds, do you still want to make a two-bld? Suppon South plays the hand at six no trump and West opens the queen of diamonds. can you make the contract"
